Why does an aqueous solution of an acid conduct electricity? |
|
Answer» Interestingly, aqueous SOLUTIONS with ions conduct electricity to some degree. Pure water, having a very low concentration of ions, cannot conduct electricity. When a solute dissociates in water to FORM ions, it is called an ELECTROLYTE, due to the solution being a good ELECTRICAL conductor. |
